In nutrition, diet is the amount of food
consumed by a person or other organism.
It is often implied the use of specific intake
of nutrition for health or weight-management
reasons.

For weight management diet, it is a particular diet
may be chosen to seek weight loss.
Changing a subject's dietary intake, or "going on a
diet", can change the energy balance and increase
or decrease the amount of fat stored by the body.
Some foods are specifically recommended, or
even altered, for conformity to the requirements of
a particular diet.
These diets are often recommended in conjunction
with exercise.

Glycemic Index Diets
A glycemic index diet uses the glycemic index to
guide your eating plan.
The glycemic index diet is neither a low-carb diet
nor a low-fat diet, and it doesn't require you to
reduce portion sizes or count calories.
Rather, its goal is to help you choose the "right"
carbohydrates to keep your blood sugar balanced,
leading to weight loss and better health.

•Make healthy food choices that will satisfy hunger
longer.
Cons
•Looks strictly at the amount of change the food
provokes in blood sugar, not necessarily at the
nutritional value of the food.
•Leaving you quickly lacking in energy and
reaching for another snack.

Low Carb Diets
A low-carb diet limits carbohydrates — such as
bread, grains, rice, starchy vegetables and fruit —
and emphasizes sources of protein and fat.
A low-carb diet is generally used to lose weight.
You might choose a low-carb diet because you
enjoy the types and amounts of food featured in
the diet — or you may believe that a low-carb diet
will help you lose weight quickly and easily.

Whatever you choose, it takes modifications
in behaviour, diet, and activity to succeed at
weight loss.
It also takes time, patience, commitment,

so never give up hope.
